We met in August 2020, during COVID when restaurants and bars in NYC were just beginning to allow dining and drinks outdoors. After a couple of dates, we discovered that we both loved to ski. By the end of our fifth date (and after a bottle of wine) we booked a trip out to Breckenridge, CO for opening weekend. That trip was a success and it kicked off the start of many more ski trips that season and throughout the years! In February 2023, we returned to Breckenridge for the third time. Austin proposed that trip, right where it all started!
